Although this website is not a 'How to Blog' site, I find that it would be a disservice not to provide a list of resources to assist others who may be seeking to start a Christian blog as well. After all, the more we can get on the internet about God, His Word, and the love of Christ, the better!
When it comes to starting a blog or website, there are a ton of blogging resources and tools to choose from. This can make it difficult to figure out what you actually need to get started. This page is my official list of recommended resources for getting started with online blogging. All items are products that I have fully vetted. In fact, every single item on this page is what I personally use here on In the Mirror of God.
Disclaimer: Some of the links below are affiliate links and I will earn a commission should you choose to make a purchase. There is no additional cost to you. I encourage you to do your due diligence and research each product on your own. Then make a purchase ONLY if you feel that solution is what you need and will help grow your online business or ministry. You can read my full disclaimer here.

WEBSITE START-UP

WEBSITE HOSTING
SiteGround
SiteGround is my absolute top website hosting recommendation! They run an amazing operation and their hosting speed is awesome.
Your WordPress site comes with a plug-in specific to SiteGround that gives many of the same optimization features of paid WordPress optimization plug-ins.
What I love most is that their support is phenomenal compared to every other web host I've tried. If you are looking to keep your WordPress site but want to move to self-hosting while you keep all your WordPress capabilities, plus add on a ton more options, then SiteGround is the way to go!
LANDING PAGES & MARKETING
Thrive Architect
For anyone using WordPress, Thrive Architect is my top recommended tool for building amazing pages for your website. It allows you to build without using any code, and is super easy to use.
Not to mention the fact that this is only one of several tools offered by Thrive Themes that would work wonders for your marketing.
This is truly one of the smartest investments any blogger can possibly make.
